I guess the biotech/medtech successes for the past 10 years are and will remain a secret success story and a bewildering anomaly?
There has been “Nothing Else” but biotech success stories this December 2019 as there have been the entire year of 2019.

The comment came after reports that funeral homes in Wuhan have ordered thousands more urns than the official death tally of coronavirus patients in the city.
In a report on the weekend, Caixin magazine quoted a truck driver as saying he delivered about 5,000 urns on Wednesday and Thursday to the funeral parlour in Hankou district – one of eight such facilities in the city.

A Self-Inflicted Crisis
Overregulation has played a dangerous role in America’s coronavirus outbreak.Roger D. KleinMarch 4, 2020 Health Care
For those without known exposures, CDC only recommends testing for severely affected patients. In theory, doctors could have tested any individuals in whom they suspected coronavirus, and Vice President Pence on March 3rd encouraged this; however, the unavailability of testing has been a major obstacle in practice. On February 4, following Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar’s declaration of a public-health emergency, the Food and Drug Administration issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to the CDC, allowing it to distribute test kits to designated public-health laboratories. The CDC began shipping the kits on February 5, but laboratories could not validate them because they contained a defective reagent.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A staggering 50 people have died in the Iranian city of Qom from the new coronavirus this month, a lawmaker was quoted as saying on Monday, even as the Health Ministry insisted only 12 deaths have been recorded to date in the country.
The lawmaker said the 50 deaths date as far back as Feb. 13. Iran first officially reported cases of the virus and its first deaths in Qom on Feb. 19.

- Several groups are working on a vaccine for the new coronavirus, but there’s no guarantee that it will be ready before the end of the current outbreak.
- One group says they may have an experimental vaccine ready for initial testing in just a month.
- But experts caution this expedited timeline doesn’t always allow for careful evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines.

A Chinese research foundation has awarded $2.1m to four teams from Columbia University to identify antiviral drugs that work against the COVID-19 coronavirus – including a project investigating whether compounds based on Gilead’s hepatitis C drug Sovaldi could be used against the outbreak.
The funding was awarded by the Jack Ma Foundation, based in Hangzhou City, in China’s Zhejiang Province.

SOVALDI is sofosbuvir
Early trial results from an unapproved Gilead drug, remdesivir, are expected in the next three weeks.
Results are also expected from a trial combining AbbVie’s HIV drugs lopinavir and ritonavir.
